    What annoys me, (and I'm seething), is my own stupidity.
    Walking home tonight I was passing the bakery at the top of Monmouth Street, Shaftesbury Avenue. I thought I'd pop in and buy 3 bread rolls. Nothing special just 3 unbuttered bread rolls. I handed over a ten pound note and got a pound coin in change. I reminded the assistant that I gave her £10 and she must of thought it was a fiver, no she was right I was stupid. I just paid £9 for 3 bread rolls.

    £9, that's a lot of dough
    Aaaaaaarghhhh

    This is surely a mistake? This lot need naming & shaming on Twitter if they are stripeing up tourists like that.

    The only mistake was mine. I should know better, I work in the West End and obviously am not a tourist.The shop hasn't been there a year so, like most start ups will probably close. God only knows who buys their stuff, they must be brain dead.

    You'll have to earn a decent crust to be able to shop in there regularly.

    You really are on a roll Dave.
    I'd have given them back, a role reversal, if you will.

  • Picking up a t-shirt and thinking its inside out before putting it on...

    Sorting out said t-shirt so its the right way, putting it on and then realising its now the wrong way out so you have to piss around all over again!!

  • The fact how everyday programmes have to be about celebrities (Barely known ones at that)

    Is probably because I'm watching E4 but All-Star Driving School is the latest in a long line... Now the Driving School programmes that BBC did many years ago was brilliant along with E4's sister channel doing some excellent type programmes which involve the every day joe struggling along with something whilst having to deal with normal life... But no, instead we get some barely known idiot who starred in another barely known programme laughing and trying to make a pretend tit of themselves thinking that what they're doing is hilarious whilst not having to worry about a typical job!!

    If she had I couldn't afford them.

    You should have nipped into Harrods and bought some foie gras to put in it

    On a train back from Leeds and a load of pissed up noisy Doncaster fans just boarded on their way to Arsenal. To top it off a fat smelly one has sat next to me.

    Show him your post.
    for shame, I was notifying a friend via text that some fatty boomboom sat down next to me and crushed me... she read my text, and was not pleased. Possibly the longest train journey in history. Time genuinely went backwards

    Getting up at 2am to get a flight putting on a t-shirt and then jacket, not thinking about it until I get on the plane take off my jacket and after about 2 hours, go to the toilet and realise my t-shirt is inside out and back to front.

    Ever since I've had kids, a common occurrence. Usually realised when I've returned from somewhere very public such as a supermarket

    How do I upload from my iPad? I'd be glad to share this with the world.
  • Reminds me of the Mickey Flanagan joke where his wife buys a loaf of artisanal bread from Borough Market for £5.

    When he has a dig at her she explains that he doesn't appreciate or understand what has gone into it - to which he replies (something like) - a fucking £2 coin better have gone into it.
  • Having to change the lights in the toilet at work, as it was in total darkness & I didn't fancy doing the taste test on the bog roll after a dump to see if it was all clear.

    Miniscus tear in my right knee last night, same knee I did my acl ligament in years ago. Right before I go on a stag do to Liverpool this weekend
  • Nasal hair and those who seem happy having a compost heap hanging out of theirs!
  • The Lords (again)

    Over a year, 115 claimed £1.2million of taxpayers’ cash in expenses without saying a word during upper chamber discussions. And £4million was handed to the 277 who spoke five times or fewer.

    It's less the amount and more the attitude towards expenses and the people footing the bill that irritates me the most about this.
